Copying and Extracting Database Right

Copying and extracting database rights refer to legal protections for creators of databases. When someone collects and organizes data systematically, they gain certain exclusive rights over how that database can be used. "Copying" means making a duplicate of the entire database, while "extracting" involves taking parts of the data. Under these rights, unauthorized copying or extracting of the database can lead to legal consequences. Essentially, it ensures that the creators are recognized and can control how their effort in compiling data is used by others.
